It was a lovely place at a good price. Location was great. It was close to a lot of attractions but in a quiet neighborhood. It was nice that breakfast came with it. It was a simple breakfast which is all I need. I would stay there again.

The Hotel Niky was very beautiful, I could not believe I had YouTube on my TV even in English. Had a walk-in shower, the most comfortable bed. Close to St. Alexander Nevski Cathedral., 2,000-year-old ruins, only a few blocks from the famous Vitosha Blvd., many other Eastern Orthodox Church's. and I was able to see 7 Museums. all walking distance. Staff were very helpful and professional, and I loved the Greek Restaurant attached to the Hotel, the Greek salad was delicious.

The staff was incredible. They made me feel like a valued customer every day of my stay. The reception staff knew my name and greeted me each morning as well as welcomed me back every night. This made me feel quite safe. The included free breakfast was a nice touch. The room was nicely laid out and the bed was comfortable. I will definitely be back.

Clean, basic and well located

This is a great place if you're not looking for something fancy. It's got all the basic amenities plus a little more if you take an apartment. It's clean and kept and best of all you can walk to all the major tourist spots. Also very well connected with underground/subway systems.
